PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) – Three girls are dead in central Washington, and the search is on for their father.
Wenatchee police say the girls’ mother called Friday saying they hadn’t returned from a custodial visit with their father, 32-year-old Travis Decker.
As much as I resent the guy. I agree with you. I’m not saying everyone, under the right conditions would be capable of this, but I would hazard many more of us than anyone wants to acknowledge are. Distancing ourselves from it only makes it harder to understand and recognize in the future.
The thing is we distance ourselves because it goes against our very instincts ground into us from the very evolutionary get go. The amount of fucked someone has to be to kill their own kith and kin amongst a social species like ourselves is immense. Hell my own family commits a mass bit of kin slaying every two hundred years or so historically, but even with that teenagers and children are usually left alone it’s more so removing geriatric or entrenched members.
